Chapter 14: The Strange Man in Gray

After the woman was helped up, her appearance was seen by several people, and Shen Lanying blurted out: "She looks so beautiful!"

This girl has a delicate melon seed face, like willow eyebrows outlined by pen and ink, her lips are a little pale due to excessive blood loss, and her face is also very poor, but it does not affect her beautiful appearance at all. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Sikong Yan squatted down, grabbed her wrist and felt it for a while, then turned his head and instructed Xia Ke: "It's good that she is still alive, first carry her to the carriage, be careful, she has a lot of old and new wounds on her body, and there seems to be bleeding in her internal organs, as for whether she can survive until we get to the town, it depends on her creation." ”

Xia Ke didn't speak, carefully picked up the girl covered in blood and put her in the carriage, let her lie flat on the saddle, and then she didn't know where to hide. Fengshuang picked up the carriage again and sped away in the direction of the town.

After this little episode, Shen Lanying had already lost her sleep, and after wiping the dust and blood off the girl's face with a wet towel, she stared at the girl lying on the seat with a pair of peach eyes.

"She's so pretty. Shen Lanying supported her head with her hands and her elbows on her knees, admiring the classical beauty in front of her.

"It's not as good as you...... she looks like," Sikong Yan muttered to himself, took out a small porcelain bottle from his arms, poured out a pale green pill, and handed it to Shen Lanying, "Feed her this." ”

"Oh. Shen Lanying looked away from the woman, took the pill in Sikong Yan's hand, put it in the woman's mouth, watched her swallow all the medicine, and then asked curiously, "What is this?"

"Medicine. Sikong Yan replied simply.

Shen Lanying rolled her eyes, "I don't know if this is medicine yet, let me ask you what kind of medicine this is." Could it be that this is something from the Nine Shadows Sect?"

"That's right. ”

Shen Lanying looked at him with wide eyes: "You really have something to do with the people of the Nine Shadows Sect!"

Sikong Yan chuckled: "It doesn't matter if I have any contact with the people of the Nine Shadows Sect, now there is a more interesting topic." Do you want to know who this girl is?"

"How can I know who she is in this barren mountain and field, covered in blood and fainting on the side of the road. Shen Lanying muttered, but the next moment she looked at Sikong Yan in surprise, "Could it be that you know her?"

"This is the first time I've been to Yunzhou in my life, how can I know anyone here? Under the gaze of Shen Lanying's surprised gaze, Sikong Yan leaned forward and untied the woman's clothes.

"You, you, what are you going to do!" Shen Lanying stared at his movements, and subconsciously screamed.

Sikong Yan glanced at Shen Lanying speechlessly, and then took out her money bag from the pocket of the woman's coat. "I'm just taking out her money bag, and I'm not trying to insult her, why are you screaming so loudly. ”

Forehead......

Shen Lanying looked at him embarrassedly, "Then what are you doing with her money bag." ”

Sikong Yan didn't answer her directly, but poured the contents of the money bag on the small table, Shen Lanying looked over, although she didn't know much about the currency of this world, but when she saw a lot of broken silver in the money bag, she immediately concluded that this girl was a woman from a rich family.

"He fainted in the field with a lot of injuries on his body, but the money bag showed no signs of being passive at all. Robbery is naturally impossible. Look at her palms again. Sikong Yan roughly glanced at the copper plate and silver in the money bag, and then put the plate back into the money bag again.

Shen Lanying pulled the woman's palm and immediately saw a layer of cocoons.

"There are calluses in the palms of her hands, and her body also has traces of martial arts, but she is still seriously injured, and there is no accompanying knife or sword on her body, her identity can be known with a little check. ”

Shen Lanying listened to Sikong Yan's calm analysis, and there was more fear in her inner admiration, and for a moment she even felt that cooperating with Sikong Yan was several times more dangerous than entering the palace.

After meeting an unidentified woman halfway through, Fengshuang had already sped up the speed of the car. But even then, by the time they arrived in the next town, it was already ugly in the middle of the night. The sky was clear and starry, there was not a trace of clouds, and the city gates were tightly closed. Just when Shen Lanying thought that they would not be able to enter the city, they could only wait until the next morning. Fengshuang took out a silver ticket with a large denomination from her arms and handed it to the old man guarding the door.

As the saying goes, money can make ghosts grind, and naturally, enough money can also make the old man smile and open the city gate for everyone.

After entering the city, Feng Shuangli went to the pharmacy to grab medicine according to Sikong Yan's instructions, and Sikong Yan and the others directly found the best inn in the city. The inn has three floors, one for the guests to eat, and the upper two floors for the inn's private rooms. Since it was late at night, when a few people first stepped into the inn, although the lights were on inside, none of the guests could see it, only Xiao Er was dozing off on the counter.

Sikong Yan walked to the counter and called Xiao Er up. To be precise, it was he who took out a silver dollar from his money bag and put it on the counter, and the crisp sound directly woke up Xiao Er.

Seeing Xiao Er's eyelids struggling to open a slit, his eyes changed from hazy to dull, and then his eyes widened, and his pupils were tightly focused on the silver dollar on the counter. Then he smiled very earnestly at his boss Kongyan's eyes.

"The private room on the third floor is by the window. Sikong Yan shook the folding fan in his hand and commanded lightly.

"Okay, three guest officers, please come with me. Xiao Er's eyes quickly swept over several people. Seeing Sikong Yan and Shen Lanying dressed luxuriously, they were not ordinary people at first glance. As for Xia Ke and the woman he was holding in his arms, they were directly ignored by Xiao Er.

Xiao Er flashed out of the counter, and was just about to lead a few people through the stairs to the third floor, but a man's voice suddenly came from the gate.

"Xiao Er, wait a minute, I also want a private room. ”

Looking back, there was a man in a gray cloth robe standing in front of the counter at the door, looking in his thirties, with a relatively large figure, carrying luggage of the same color cloth bag on his shoulders, looking a little simple. His outfit is very simple, like a person who has been on a journey for a long time, and has a bit of a dusty feeling.

"This guest officer, are you alone?" Xiao Er heard his call, hurriedly turned around, looked at him, asked him with some doubts, and secretly said in his heart: What is the situation today, why do you come to stay in the middle of the night.

"Yes, it's me. The person at the door seemed to be a little dissatisfied with Xiao Er's lukewarm attitude, and raised his eyebrows slightly.
